Secura 60-Minute Visual Countdown Timer, 7.5-Inch Oversize Classroom Visual Timer for Kids and Adults, Durable Mechanical Kitchen Timer Clock with Magnetic Backing (Blue)

I LOVE this timer in my first grade inclusion class! They love it too! I love that it doesn't need batteries or to be charged, it's like and old school kitchen timer. It's large enough for me to display on my whiteboard and the whole class can see. That is another reason I love it because it has 2 huge stripes ng magnets on the back that hold it to my whiteboard. It also has a stand for if I need to move it or take it with me to recess. It did start to stop ticking and would not go off after almost a whole school year of using it daily. I contacted the company and they were very quick to send a response and replacement. I couldn't recommend this timer and company more. I've actually talked 3 coworkers at school into to buying them! They love it too! The kids were so sad when it stopped working and were so lost without it. They are going to be so excited when they see the new working timer tomorrow!! Thank you Secura!!!

I love this clock/timer this is my second one. I needed another one for my classroom so I bought the same model in a different color. the clock is very helpful with the color to show the students how much time they have left to finish their task. I love that feature of the clock. I also love the fact that it is magnetic. Overall, it is a great clock/timer.

Love this timer for my 2.5 year old! It is easy to use and made it so he could easily see how much time left there was before we needed to clean up/move on/etc. You do have to rotate the timer to 55 and then to your time if setting it for a small amount of time in order for the buzzer to go off- not a big deal, just something to keep in mind when using. Strong magnets made it secure to the fridge. Unfortunately, the color disc broke after about a month of use and it is no longer usable. But I contacted Secura customer service and found out the visual timer has a two year warranty and they immediately addressed the issue. Very happy with this purchase!

Just arrived today and I was very excited to see it! My initial impression is that this is a durable item. It is a bit heavier than I expected, but the frame is metal and it feels like quality components. I like that it has 3 ways to hang/set up. I used the magnet strips to put it on a magnetic whiteboard and it feels secure - I was kind of wondering how well it would actually stay there.Tried it out and the alarm could be heard across the house in a different room (small 1 level house). I think it went off about 1 minute early. Note: there is NO SWITCH FOR THE ALARM. Maybe because I looked at so many choices that had that option, I assumed it had one. But it doesn’t. I think this will still be great for my intended use, but wish I could adjust the alarm to softer or off.Will update after a few months of use.

I am in love with this visual time. The color is bold and pretty, perfect size and the sound is just right for all my students. I am looking forward to using this in my class I know my students will love it.

This clock is nice and big, great design, easy to use, and sticks to the board wis a strong hold. The quality is excellent and was a great time and behavior management tool for me this year!

I ordered one green and one blue. I have used both for up to 5 minutes at a time. The timing is accurate enough for my purposes. Both do go 10-20 seconds beyond the actual time set when compared to a stop watch, but it is not easy to be exact when setting the timer so this time difference may be due to that. They make a ticking sound while operating, but it is not incredibly loud and has not been distracting for my purposes (I work with adults). They are relatively small, so are easy to pack up and take with me for off-site use. I really like that they do not require batteries so I don’t have that added expense or worry. The colored disks are bright enough that you can easily gauge your time visually even from a distance. For me, the biggest issue has to do with operation of the bell. The blue timer will "ding" several times between minutes 4 and 3 and the green one between minutes 3 and 2. This random "dinging" is problematic, as it distracts people from their work because they erroneously think their time is up. The second problem is the fact that neither timer makes a noise when the entire time has elapsed - the ticking just stops. Because the ticking is relatively quiet, I can’t hear it unless I am pretty close by. Therefore, I have to repeatedly look at the timer to know when time is up, which takes my attention away from the work I am doing while the timer is running. If I turn the knob to 0 manually, the timer sounds, but it does not sound at all when operating on its own. If this issue were to be corrected, these visual timers would be perfect for my purposes.

This is a great tool for my visual toddler to know what is going on. The other reviews were so helpful, like turning it to end if you want it to ring under 5 minutes, etc. It is quite a loud alarm and does make a ticking sound when counting down, but that works for why we got it. The big magnet works great for our fridge, which is where ours stays, but the stand is helpful too. My purple-loving toddler loves it!
